The same way you can't have a '10th level guard dog fighter'. If your in a high powered game, though, there is no reason you can't do it. 2.Does it have a memory? Yes!. Even with an Intelligence of 3 it could remember things, and it's more likely it's Int will be higher then that. Dogs, after all, only have Intelligences of 2....and dogs can remember things. As for RAW. I'm not sure that #1 is spelled out anywhere. It's just the general idea that you can't have leveled animals/pets/mounts/ect. #2 can be found in the PH under intelligence, and the MM helps to compare creatures(an Animated Objects are listed there too).
